Brief History
The Micronesia-Pacific Collection is Palau Community College's Tan Siu Lin Library's special collection. The Micro-P collection, however, predates the Tan Siu Lin Library with its beginnings in 1994 in the college's old library. 16 years later, in 2010, it was moved to the current library: Tan Siu Lin Library.
The Micronesia-Pacific collection began with just two shelves containing less than 500 items. These items included some books, Micronesian Occupational College catalogs, newspaper clippings, and the Jot This Down Newsletter, etc. Today...
..the Micronesia-Pacific Collection or "the Micro-P", as it is commonly called, consists of over 8,000 books alone. As its name suggests, it is a collection of all things Micronesian or Pacific from government documents and magazines to academic journals and maps. These and more make up the Micro-P collection. See The Materials page for more details.
Location...
The Micronesia-Pacific Collection is on the lower level of Palau Community College's Tan Siu Lin Library. The library is left of Btaches Building from the main road. It is also behind the Learning Resource Center across and to the left of the Development Office.
